How many times has the water saved my life?
Drowning in the world on land, the water rescues me.
How much of my pain has the water absorbed?
Tears from my eyes become part of the therapeutic body.

How many times has the water saved my life?
Thirsting for a reasons to go on, to move on,
How many times has water given me an answer?
Wisdom beneath the surface, wisdom keeping me afloat.

How many times has the water saved my life?
